### 2/5 — Screen Scaling

*2025-12-18, version 1.0.9*

On my IPhone 14, the app does not fit the screen. I’ve reinstalled the app, checked firmware, confirmed the display to standard. What am I missing, as it seems to be zoomed in too much.

### 2/5 — Randomly works and then doesn’t

*2025-10-11, version 1.0.8*

I find that the app is very hit or miss if it works or not. At times it will say my smoker is off when it’s running which is very annoying. I wish the app was better - like the Traeger or Pittboss. Hopefully Broil King invests a bit of money in their app to make it worthwhile because it is handy when it works.

### 2/5 — Not impressed

*2025-07-23, version 1.0.7*

My smoker constantly looses connectivity with this app. Totally useless

### 3/5 — notifications feature

*2025-07-19, version 1.0.7*

I find when using a probe, the notifications feature randomly sends notifications for 1° or 2° temperature changes. this happens whether or not a probe temp is set. all firmware is up-to-date and this is a brand new unit.

### 1/5 — Logging in

*2025-06-22, version 1.0.7*

Stuck on logging in screen

### 1/5 — Very Basic

*2025-06-21, version 1.0.7*

Very basic app controls. No way to calibrate grill or probes.  App keeps saying I have a firmware update available for my smoker and the it will “be installed in the next 24hrs”…but it’s been weeks. Still hasn’t installed anything, and yes it’s on wifi and plugged in this whole time. There is also no way to delete past “cooks” from the graphs, so this list is just getting polluted with “cooks” every time I turn on the smoker.  Seems they have put more effort in this app into the sales and marketing materials with essentially the Broil King website embedded in app, rather than actual useful functionality to control the smoker.  If I wanted Broil King propaganda, I’d go to their website.  When I open the broil king app, it’s to get work done…and it barely checks that box.

### 2/5 — Terrible app

*2025-06-15, version 1.0.7*

I can connect to the pellet grill, but cannot control anything, even though I used to be able to set temperatures and shut down the grill. If my phone screen shuts off or I navigate to another app, then I need to close out the iQue app and log in again to see the grill. Can no longer get the temperature graphs that used to be available. Every new update seems to remove more functionality.

### 3/5 — Pre set temps at bottom of screen need to be moved

*2025-06-15, version 1.0.7*

I like the app. Except for the location of the preset temps on the bottom of the screen. When I am smoking at 250 and I swipe up to close the window it will sometime change the temp to grill which is 400 😳. Started a grease fire and almost ruined my meat. This needs to be changed immediately.

### 1/5 — Barely qualifies as an app

*2025-06-07, version 1.0.7*

Doesn’t work. I mean it does, kinda. But mostly doesn’t. This is how one experiences this app. Stop cheaping out on developers.

### 1/5 — Why have an app if it never connects

*2025-05-25, version 1.0.7*

Bluetooth is garbage, wifi is garbage, app is garbage. Smokers are good though

### 1/5 — Awfully

*2025-05-25, version 1.0.7*

Seemed to be an easy setup but Blue tooth connection still doesn’t work. In addition no good service from BK . Very disappointing

### 3/5 — Version française confondante

*2025-05-14, version 1.0.7*

J’ai du me résoudre à mettre l’application en anglais tellement la traduction est mauvaise et parfois confondante.
La connexion Bluetooth n’est pas très bonne. Mis à part ces défauts je crois bien qu’elle sera utile.

### 1/5 — Can’t see the temp just a spinning wheel

*2026-05-30, version 1.0.12*

App doesn’t stay signed in,  and it’s useless because you never stop seeing the spinning gear icon. So I just have to go to the BBQ anyway

### 1/5 — Worst app

*2026-04-11, version 1.0.9*

It doesn’t work. It doesn’t connect to your phone. I even noticed it asked me if I “want to contrinue with my selection”. Like a spelling error? On an app? That’s insane. It’s ridiculous how poor this app is. Shoulda just got a traeger

### 1/5 — App

*2026-02-22, version 1.0.9*

The app will not update, and while using it … and while using it, it will turn off my bbq … Hey BroilKing, do better

### 1/5 — Crashes and logs out

*2026-01-31*

App never stays connected to grill. Temp alerts don’t alert you. App will log you out and not let you log back in. It says user doesn’t exist even if you have an account. It won’t even send you password reset. Complete garbage app in 2026. Takes away from an otherwise decent pellet grill. Get it together guys!

### 1/5 — Terrible App

*2026-01-02, version 1.0.9*

Where as pitboss and traegar have fantastic app experiences, the opposite can be said for broil king. 
-You have a 1 in 10 chances the smoker will connect with the app and stay connected. 
-I have not been able to update my smoker in 3 months as it keeps failing. 
-The app experiences feels stuck in 2015 with no features. 
-They didn’t even bother to spell check as spelling is wrong on multiple windows and popups. 

DO NOT BUY A BROILKING.

### 1/5 — Bad experience overall

*2025-08-10, version 1.0.8*

App keeps going off and on, tells me my smoker is off when it isn’t. Doesn’t connect even though I’m right beside it. Tells me to close my lid on the middle of cooking even though it’s been closed for an hour. And it times out. Terrible. Been like this for over a year and no improvements have been noticed. Wouldn’t have purchased the bbq knowing the app was this bad.

### 1/5 — Trash app, doesn’t work.

*2025-08-09*

Just don’t have an app if you can’t get it to work…

**Developer response:** Hello, We're sorry to hear the app is not working as it should. Please reach out to us at info@omcbbq.com with more information on what' going on with your app so we can get this fixed. Thank you!

### 1/5 — Hot garbage

*2025-07-26, version 1.0.7*

Sure wouldn’t buy anything from this company again. Broil King firmware won’t update, app loses connection to grill constantly, doesn’t fit on screen (half of the data is off the side of the screen).

### 1/5 — Horrible Connectivity!

*2025-07-05*

I don’t typically rate apps. But scheriously! This is trash. It never wants to connect. You can’t set temp alarms. All around garbage

**Developer response:** Hello, Thank you for your review. We're sorry to hear you're experiencing issues with connectivity and temperature alarms. We're happy to help get these issues fixed. Please reach out to us at info@omcbbq.com and we're happy to further assist. Thank you.

### 1/5 — So disappointing!

*2025-06-25, version 1.0.7*

Such a disappointment for the calibre of smoker. The app is terribly built, it’s so laggy and lacks cooking features. There is no temperature graph anymore to see your current cook.
With the cook types at the bottom you can easily accidentally change the temperature.

### 5/5 — Tech Support 👍👍

*2025-09-29, version 1.0.8*

I had issues with controlling my grill with the app.  The app developer provided me with personalized support and resolved my issues.  Very friendly and responsive!  I was very impressed with the support provided!

### 5/5 — Does what expected

*2025-06-24, version 1.0.7*

The app works to do what it says it would do. I like to read the reviews of people who have obvious home network issues but blame the app. 
I’ve had no problems. Monitors and responds to commands.

### 5/5 — Simple and Effective

*2025-03-06, version 1.0.7*

The latest update has really improved this app. It simple to both control and see the grill temp. Lots of great additional information such as recipes and maintenance tips. Love my Broil King!

### 5/5 — Amazing uodate

*2025-02-01, version 1.0.7*

The graph feature is amazing and the app is working flawlessly.

### 5/5 — Game Changer

*2025-01-30, version 1.0.7*

iQue makes grilling fun and easy. Really enjoying it thus far

### 5/5 — Clean and smooth

*2025-01-30*

Very easy to use with my Regal Pellet. Can see my smokes from anywhere using my cell data.

It has been driving my IQue gas grill and how fast the commands reach the grill from my phone.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your review! We're happy to hear the iQue app is working so well with your Gas iQue grill! Happy Grilling!

### 5/5 — Nice update…

*2025-01-30, version 1.0.7*

Love the grill but app was underwhelming… this update is simple but a BIG improvement. Setting temperatures is a breeze.  Graph live link is cool but have not played with it too much yet.

### 5/5 — Practical app for a great grill

*2025-01-30, version 1.0.7*

Connected simply and very easy to use.  Does not try to do too much. Love the graph feature.  Nice upgrade.

### 5/5 — Great Grill and App

*2025-01-08*

Love this IQue grill, was easy to set up and start to use.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your review! Happy Grilling!

### 5/5 — Works for Me

*2025-01-08, version 1.0.6*

Grill is super solid and makes the food delicious and Smokey. App works to tell me the temps and I can walk away knowing I have an eye on the grill.
